This has changed my life. I use B 12 injections monthly. I do not absorb B12. My symtoms were, fatigue (I could't get enough sleep and would wake up tired), ear ringing, tingling in my legs, daily diarhea, some balance loss. My MD started me with weekly B12 inj. for 4 weeks, then once every 2 weeks. Now once every 4-6 weeks. I do them myself, its very easy. I had 2 different test where I was bo...

I took this for weight loss and I took it for two days and it made me extremely tired and super cranky. needless to say I stopped talking it. I slept for almost 24 hours straight. so much for a energy booster.

I've been taking sublingual B12 for 8 months. My energy level dramatically increased. On the down side, I've begun to experience severe sleep apnea, irregular heartbeat and (last 2 weeks) strange cramps in the ankles & feet?? I hate discontinuing B12 because of the benefits but don't want to continue if I'm doing more harm that good

I had the pain from shingles bad for months I could hardly function. Someone suggested vitamin b12 shots, that it had helped them. I decided to try it out and see if would help because I don't like pain pills and that was the only thing that helped. The vitamin b12 injections have helped me a lot. I will get one a week until I get rid of the nerve pain from the shingles.

B-12 works wonders for me when I am tired and I need to stay on task. I used to use it often when I was in grad school to study. I would take about 1000-3000mg of B-12 sublingully about 30 min before sitting down to study and I would get a good 3-5 hours of great focus to study and at the time I was not being treated for my ADHD. this was my self medication.

My mother would get B-12 injections prior to being diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease. I wonder if she shouldn't have - that she might have ignored some side effects of this drug ... That it contributed to her ALS...

I recently picked up a bottle of B-12 which (in very small print) listed @10,000mcg \ I think it may have caused the nausea and vertigo that I am experiencing.

B-12 Injections are Now VERY VERY EXPENSIVE!! All within the last 6 months. This is an outrage for folks that have absorbtion issues and need injections.

I had taken shots monthly for several years and found they were helpful for the leg problems and memory...until I could no longer get the RX to give myself shots - so have been off the B12 shots for about a year. Test recently showed the severe deficiency again - so I found the CVS dissolvable B12 1500mg over the counter.... using for 3 weeks - can't use the other pill forms. Have developed constipation and bleeding/bruising problems (am on Aspirin). I don't see any improvements yet - if the constipation continues, then I will stop this OTC B12. Why isn't this listed as side effects? Read More Read Less

Notice very little difference in fatigue when taking an injection.
